I think that there probably is a lot of intelligent life out there. The universe that we can see is vast and seems to go out much, much farther than we can observe. The distances are too great for any real communication to occur (even to the nearest single stars). You can forget about intergalactic travel.

In addition, there will never be a two-way conversation because of the limitation on the speed of transmission of such communication because of the 299,792,458 meters per second (m/s) speed limit of electromagnetic radiation and much, much less for anything with mass.

However, we can all dream about space travel, even if the reality of same is non-existent.
